Fool Proof?
Befuddlements
-Charlene is quite ditzy!
-Never met the like.
-Whereas George is steady-state.
-As befits a professor of electrical engineering!
-Yet she's the star of that odd pairing.
-How so? 'cause being at sixes and sevens perpetually, makes
for celestial brightness! Not!
-She's a Professional Idiot. Travels the world!
-What for? Doing the things we all do, but with scattering?
-Let's put it this way. If German engineers have tested a consumer
product through and through and...
-declared it absolutely, Teutonically finished! Ninety-nine point
nine perfecto!
-They send for her. They can declare it foolproof, idiot proof, or
whatever, she finds a way or ways to utterly confound them,
gumming up everything! Many end up babbling: “It's as close to
perfect as we could make it. No one could guess that someone
would employ it in these totally crazy ways!”
-Which she does naturally?
-Without a thought.
-What a valuable nut! I hope the professor appreciates...
-He really does when she's gone. Quite the single malt fancier!
-Like her, he tests them out!
-Employing his brain, though. At least at the start.
-Evidently not always the best thing at most points in a process.
